I will have to look into these. Thank you!

There is definitely something that hasn't healed over all the way...I think it's a very small area but when I took my ever so fun sponge bath yesterday a small bit of soapy water ran over the incision and man did it sting/burn! The pain right now that it feels like it's tugging and pulling apart where it's not healed all the way yet. I'm calling Tuesday morning and will send pictures. I'm a bit worried about infection just because it's so red around this incision (not the other one) and there are itchy red bumps around the area (but those could be a reaction to the tape I guess).

I will definitely look into those bandages and things LitLove and I have taken pictures of it to send to my st judes rep if needed.

Right now the only comfortable position is laying on my stomach. Had a small flare up in the pain in my leg after laying on the floor because of my back hurting ...but it maxed out at a 6/10 and is now back to its normal 2.
